ArticulationBody setup flies around in play mode with no forces applied when there is a falling rigidbody
ArticulationBody setup flies around in play mode with no forces applied when there is a falling rigidbody
To reproduce:
1. Open attached project
2. Enter play mode
Expected result: The capsule/cube body falls to the ground and rests
Actual result: After hitting the ground, he convulsely flies off into the distance
Reproduced in: 2020.1.0a15 (feature introduced in this version)
Note: This only happens if there is a rigidbody cube falling somewhere in the scene (they do not need to collide)
Note2: This only happens if the articulation body has sufficiently complex set up. Disabling any of the 4 connected Articulation Bodies stop the bug from reproducing
Note3: Gif attached
Note4: Capsule (1) has Twist set to Limited. Switching it to Free also makes the bug dissapear
WORKAROUND: One of the limbs has Spherical joint with Twist limited to a [0, 0] range. It creates a bad condition inside PhysX, so increasing the twist range is recommended. Also, I noticed that removing non-uniform scale helped too.

- Crash on JobQueue::HasJobGroupIDCompleted when closing the Editor while in Play mode on a specific project
- In "Preferences" section the “SpriteShape” menu item, the details page title “SpriteShape”, and “ControlPoint” entries are displayed as code strings rather than formatted UI strings
- Errors thrown constantly when Virtual Offset Debug is enabled and lighting was baked on AMD machine
- Persistent Memory Leak when reloading domain and using Distance-based Ghost Importance
- HDRP project doesn't render in standalone player when using High stripping
Resolution Note:
This is related to a problem in PhysX where a certain type of a spherical joint would cause an ill condition for the algorithm used. It's expected to be addressed in PhysX 5, but we'd only be able to reliably tell when it's out. Closing for now.
